How do you know it isn't a backwardly jointed alien?
Just watched. The audio is backward too.
If you didn't like that the show obviously isn't for you and you should stop watching...
According to a friend, the caption for the scene says [distorted audio]
Could it be connected to her Time Crystal experience?
Well, let this be a lesson to everyone. Never lick a Time Crystal.
Sage advice that we should all take under advisement
Tastes like a Jolly Rancher anyway.
I'm not sure how being jolly changes someones...oh, right, nevermind.
Only responding to this one part because it jumped out to me:
The Federation in early-TNG and late-DS9 are very different from each other and that's just 10 years' difference, nevermind 800. Assuming the Federation is still around in the 33rd Century, it should be nothing like what we've seen in TNG/DS9/VOY. It should bear no resemblance to what we're familiar with from the other series at all. Michelle Paradise can make it whatever she wants it to be. If they even show the Federation or what descended from it. It might even be post-Fall of the Federation if that ever came to pass. Assuming they even show any of it at all.
To me, the characters in DSC are primary and the setting is secondary. I'm here more for Burnham, Saru, Tilly, Stamets, and the rest than I am for what century it's in.
And Craft seems pretty identifiably Human too. I'd even say he'd fit right in with the Disco Crew. I'm not saying we need to see him again but he definitely doesn't strike me as some Hyper-Evolved Latter-Day Roddenberrian. He's just a regular guy who runs into Discovery and builds a perfectly human rapport with Zora, before leaving. "Calypso" is the most human story Discovery ever put out and it features a Human from the 33rd Century and an AI.

Mind your own business.
You already said like five times tod...wait a minute!
Surely it was done on purpose because Burnham was experiencing after-effects from touching the time crystal.
Yep, it's 100% intentional. The audio goes backwards as does the shot, and it comes at a beat in the narrative where things on screen are going awry.
Actually it is what happened. Exactly.
You misrepresent what I said. I never defined "drama king or queen" as one who writes a letter to loved ones. One such scene is fine. Even a 20-30 second montage of various crew members doing that with cross audio mixes would be fine. It is something altogether different to have characters wallowing in one emotional circle jerk after another.
However, licking a Time Susan or a Time Betty or any other Time Lady is perfectly okay so long as it's consensual.

Regeneration energy burns human tissue, sorry.
I guess that's what they told you so as not hurt your feelings. That was sweet of them.

Yes, yet another species awash with compassion and emotion.
That's putting it mildly. Green Orion slave girls having nothing on revved up Time Ladies, YOWZA!
That's the beginning of her time vision, Enterprise never actually fires on Discovery, it is all part of the vision and she stops Pike before it happens.
